I experiment a lot of theses crashes and impossible to know why…
VDMX is running under Rosetta of course.

Thanks by advance for any help.

Does VDMX work on your system natively? (Not using Rosetta?)

Onesh · January 2, 2024, 10:20pm

Hi there !

Yes, VMDX works natively on my system, without using Rosetta, but to use all the features, it was asked to always run Rosetta.
And btw, I had the same crashes without Rosetta
Thanks by advance for your help.

Hi,

Again today a lot of crash logs like this one… :

When you have VDMX open. Got to the Help Menu > Report Bug and fill in your info. That will send it to support.

If you updated to OSX 14. I would recommend deleting and reinstalling VDMX (I’m assuming OSX 14 came on your M3 Mac, but just in case).

Onesh · January 4, 2024, 4:50pm

Hello,

Thanks !
So, i sent the error report
I reinstall BUT stil, same crashes… I’m really disappointed because it’s annoying and I use VDMX like everyday and a lot

Hope it will be fixed, thanks for your help my friend

ProjectileObjects · January 5, 2024, 8:15pm

A few things. When you send a big report. Do not copy the crash logs and paste them in the description. That’s not a description, it’s a crash log that is included with your bug report.

If you sent an email that is too large it gets blocked.

Lastly, don’t spam the bug report system. Every time you send a big report it takes your email (and bug report) and moves it to the end of the queue of email tickets.

Onesh · January 6, 2024, 6:26pm

Yes, I’ve already answered you by mail my friend.
I didn’t pay attention to the numbers of reports and I was not sure that every report is the same btw.

Try to understand to that this problem is really annoying especially during a live sesh… Especially for an expansive and performant software like VDMX.
I’m suprised to be the only one with this bug… It’s when I’m scrolling that it’s crash, always.

Thanks for your help. I know you are working on it.
